Hello everyone who is subscribed to my personal feed. I just wanted to let you all know about something that is going on with me right now, and to solicit your prayers (if you are a praying sort of person).
I was at an after church pot luck at about 2:10 today when I got a call from my dad. He and my mom are snowbirds here (they spend 6 months out of the year in Florida and 6 months in Ohio). He told me that mom had gone into cardiac arrest and that she was being taken to a local hospital. My 58 year old mother hasn’t been taking wonderful care of herself (mainly because she and my dad lack insurance… a couple years ago it was cancelled by the company my dad retired from) Anyway, they lost her twice at the hospital and had almost given up when they got a pulse back. My dad thinks all total today her brain went without oxygen for about 30 minutes.
Prognosis has gotten better throughout the day. Her heart’s pretty much pumping on its own and they think she’s trying to breath for herself. Right now, she is asleep and we’re waiting for her to wake up. She is starting to respond a little bit, but we’re afraid that it might just be the normal bodies reactions. The doctors told us that we’re all in a waiting game. Tomorrow we should know a lot more.
Anyway, there won’t be a second XSLT post this weekend (sorry). You understand I have a lot more on my mind.
Please pray for us (if you are a praying sort of person)… Tuesday is my youngest’s first brithday. I want her to make the party even if we have to take it to her.
